Re: Coachella 2014 EDM Acts?

ugh. Yet he will be a new face and better than the rest of the people you listed. my hopes on him are dwindling... yet still want to make my own assumptions on his show. And i am hoping you are talking about his Live set, not DJ. His DJ set was phenomenal when i saw him.

So sad to realize these are the artists you want to see. Have you really not seen them yet? They do kinda play everywhere all the time.
The Sahara has already been infected by these "dj's". Ive enjoyed Zedd,deadmau5 and skrillex on various occasions. But Sirah? Isnt that the vocalist Skrillex used? I think Coachella is over Afrojack... he played to half empty tent 2 years ago during his 2hr kiisfm sounding set. Then you got Krewella who sounds like chainsaw dubstep and avicii mixed together. None of these artists bring anything new to the table..Lets make a productive list of dj's.

Re: Coachella 2014 EDM Acts?

yeah I hope this is the year that they take the sahara in a new direction. I think it's ready to have big room dj's mixed in with the "mojave" edm acts of the past couple years. Upgrading acts like flylo, disclosure, modeselektor, the presets, cut copy, etc to the sahara again would be a seamless transition that could keep the tent viable into the future. If they keep booking the avicii's, afrojacks, hardwells, knife party's of the world then they run the risk of turning stale.

I don't really see this happening, mainly because of the recent Sahara expansion. Fly Lo, Disclosure and others like them couldn't fill the previous Sahara, let alone the new huge one.

It's not out of the question that they would play the Sahara, but I think it's very unlikely. I feel like the recent expansion of The Sahara was GVs way of isolating those "Top 100" type DJs and bringing more live and underground electronic acts to the Mojave/Gobi.

I saw Feed Me at both Coachella and EDC that year. It was an alright set, kinda got bored with his music at the time. I like his new album though, so if he came back i would check him out. C2C would be a good repeat, but i dont see it happening. Very fun set by them. And I think Rudimental is a shoe in, hopefully Mojave or Outdoor though.

Re: Coachella 2014 EDM Acts?

Ya, i would like to see Feed Me one day and Spor on another, but in different tents. Feed Me in Sahara and Spor in the Yuma tent, I think they could/should have a day dedicated to drum and bass in the Yuma, but they most likely wont.

I also see avicii playing but maybe in the mainstage since he's become really huge now.

I agree with you. I think AVICII could do the mainstage. It would give me something to steer clear of. TokiMonsta would be great to have back again. She played two times, last time she was there. She played on Saturday and Sunday.
